Yet more Napoleonic "French" skirmishers rebased

These are the last of my Napoleonic skirmish games figures to be rebased.

Strelets Foot Dragoons and HaT Young Guard

Strelets Poles from a couple of their early sets providing enough for two normal units and one small unit of Grenadiers

Off to Phalanx tomorrow where I will be rerunning my Montgisard 1177 game for the Lance & Longbow Society and also helping out on our own Beacon Wargames Club game of DAK Attack.

Continuing the Napoleonic Peninsula rebasing

Another four units rebased, these were very much the left-overs from my main Napoleonic collection as the poses did not fit and I had enough skirmishers already. Now rebased as 3-2-1 for Rebels and Patriots

The British - Revell Infantry and HaT Light Infantry.

The French - HaT Light Infantry and HaT Fusiliers

Napoleonic Spanish Guerrillas rebased

My Spanish Guerrillas were a collection of various figures accumulated over time and various styles had been applied to each era. So they were an obvious candidate for rebasing to the 3-2-1 standard I am using for Napoleonic skirmish games.

Figures are a mix on Hinton Hunt, Newline and HaT.

A bit late for D-Day - Paratroops

I didn't manage to complete these before visiting my older daughter, so they are only now completed since my return. So here are the new Mars US and British Paratroops plus a few extras as noted.

The British, these include some rebased personality figures from SHS and my 3D printed Para with carrier pigeon.

The US, this includes a couple of command bases that have the Wargames Illustrated Captain Winters figure added, scaled and printed in 20mm

On the Workbench - June 2024

I've managed to finish most of what I planned to in May, so I have an almost empty painting table to start the month, I will work on

• some WW2 British and American Paratroops for a D-Day painting competition - these are underway
• Rebasing my Napoleonic skirmish game figures based on my old plaster based basing
• Similarly rebasing my German Mediterranean Fallschirmjager and adding a few extra heavy weapons
• French Dragoons for Egypt 1800
• Continue working on my 3D printed oddments
• Start up the 3D printer, hopefully to produce some Horsa gliders plus some other new STL files I have bought

Finally I will be at the Phalanx show in St Helens on 22nd June, I will be supporting both the Lance & Longbow Society and my local Beacon Wargames Club.

WW2 Russian winter troops reworked & rebased

My WW2 Winter Russians like some other figures painted around the same time were based with plaster filler, gradually over time it discoloured and recently it started to crumble. So time to upgrade them with new bases using decorators caulk and snow powder.

The three original units were organised for Rapid Fire and didn't give enough gaming flexibility so I added extra figures to make them up to three platoons with supports

Ski troops

1st Platoon.
